If you live in a small apartment or an older home, your kitchen may be small and poorly laid out. A nonfunctional kitchen wastes your time every day. Discover how to optimize and organize your kitchen and maximize your space with our tips.
Use floor-to-ceiling space
To achieve a functional and ergonomic kitchen when you have limited space, it's essential to consider the verticality of your room. If you have limited floor space, you can increase your storage capacity by using the height of your walls. Consider choosing tall units that reach your ceilings and
custom kitchen cabinets available at Rêve cuisine in Montreal. This way, you can use unused space to create overhead storage. These units are perfect for storing items you use less often on a daily basis. Additionally, this type of layout gives your ceilings an impression of height and visually enlarges your room.
Create a custom layout
If your kitchen is too small and your space is poorly designed, don't hesitate to consider custom-made furniture. At Rêve Cuisine, we specialize in
kitchen renovations in Laval and can create a custom kitchen for you. With furniture designed for your space, you can optimize every space in your kitchen. You can also create small niches in tight spaces to maximize the space in your small kitchen.
Open your space
Opening a small kitchen to the living room is a great way to make the space feel larger. If you can't knock down a complete wall, you can create a semi-open kitchen by installing a glass partition or a glass wall. This inexpensive design adds a lot of character to your room and instantly expands your space. You'll also gain more light.
Choose wall hooks and magnetic bars
To optimize a small kitchen, don't hesitate to hang accessories on your backsplash. For example, you can choose to install a magnetic bar. This allows you to hang all your knives and kitchen utensils to free up space on your worktop. You can also choose to install wall rails to hang small shelves with your condiments and spices. There are many clever storage accessories available for
your kitchen renovation in Laval .
Focus on brightness
To visually enlarge a small space, focus on good lighting. As a first step, you can consider a kitchen renovation in Montreal and replace your kitchen doors. Opt for light colors that will make your space look larger. It's also possible to create custom kitchens with lights integrated into your solid wood kitchen cabinets. Also consider your flooring and opt for flooring in light, bright tones.
A small kitchen doesn't have to be. With a few design tricks, you can visually enlarge your room and gain more storage space, even in a small space. To create the kitchen of your dreams, don't hesitate to contact our Rêve Cuisine consultants in Laval and Montreal.
